Ship pic tutorial
I start from the lowest deck and work my way up to the top. Sometimes I do miss things or forget that I haven't taken a picture of a place and this time would not be an exception to that rule. Sorry.
DECK 3: Lobby
The atrium area. Probably the most photographed area of any ship and I would not be the exception to that rule.
Guest Services, which I never had the pleasure of meeting I'm happy to say.
Have you noticed there's A LOT of green on this ship?
I told ya, it's goes on and on and on...
Northern Lights MDR
And one last picture of the Northern Light MDR...They had the whale tail etched in the glass doors.

DECK 4: ATLANTIC
Books & Games:
Circle C:
Club 02:
Conference Center/Art Room Storage/Auction:
These are 2 of Sakari's favorite pictures on the ship. They were 3D and I told her how I used to create pictures like this when I was little. My mom would go to the store and buy wrapping paper (usually something with animals on it or Hobbie Girl) and we would pick a pattern and cut them out. Over and over again. Then use this special rubber silicone glue and glue them on top of each other, creating different layers to make it 3D. Sakari loved that idea and wants to do this with me. I hope I can find a good pattern with something to use and we can do this together. We've been pretty crafty/artsy lately.
Escape Bar:
DECK 5: Promenade
The shops:
Hot Shots
Pixels: They seem to be doing a lot of renovations while we were on.
Let's go back to deck 4. I forgot THE WAREHOUSE, which is a game room, is located on this deck but for some reason Carnival doesn't list it as a place on their website (although it is on the blue prints).
Ok, back to deck 5.
CHERRY ON TOP:
Now I believe this might be the "future cruise desk" but I'm not 100% sure. I never did see anyone sitting here or people around this area and I didn't even notice what it was until...actually the day we were walking off the ship. I don't even remember hearing any announcements saying to come here to book a cruise like they normally do. Maybe they didn't have a rep there that week?
Now on to one of my favorite places, of course, the CASINO.
I have to say that almost every cruise I seem to do fairly well and by well I mean walking out with more than I came in with for the entire cruise. I don't care if it's $20 or $200. Walking out with more than you came there with and played and had fun all week doing so is winning in my book.
However, this cruise would be different. I actually lost a total of $200 in the casino during the week (and we play every night). But, we had fun doing it.
There were a few games that no matter when I played them, they treated me well, hit the extra spins and free games and kept me playing for quite some time (like sometimes an hour!).
These are two of the games (BLACK WIDOW AND DAKOTA).
There was another BLACK WIDOW game that is located right in front of the bar in the "smoking" section with tables and it also did very well.
Wow those eyes look evil.
These are some others that did pretty well and everyone seemed to want to play these and would jump on them as soon as they could. Heidi was always hitting the free spins and giving away her "free beer", which was money. It was a lot of fun.
This Hot Shot game is one of the first games I had ever played and gambled on with the hubby back years ago. The hubby and I went on a short land vacation in Canada and there was a casino down the street that had several of these. They would hit over and over and I loved playing them. Well, these days you always see the updated version of Hot Shot and never the "original". Well, these are some of the originals, so they must be pretty old. They were fun playing, but didn't hit anything worth mentioning. They just brought back some old memories of when the hubby first met.
The hubby loves the Panda game everywhere we go. It did not treat him well on this cruise.
The Ocean Plaza area
Another Pixels Gallery area. It's not working, but looks like they are making improvements on obtaining your pictures.
Plaza Cafe & Coffee area
Lanai area and hot tub
Pig & Anchor is located outside and only open during certain days of the week (sea days). It's always a popular place and you will encounter a line since they are hardly open during the cruise.
Play It Again Piano Bar:
Prime Steakhouse:
Red Frog Pub
They had quite a few Ohio plates hanging up there.
Spotlight Lounge
Vibe Dance Club
DECK 10: LIDO
Beach Pool
Blue Iguana Cantina:
And the Blue Iguana Tequila Bar
On the opposite side is GUYS BURGERS
And the Red Frog Rum Bar
Right inside the hall, before heading out to the pool area, you will find another Fun Hub (they seem to be everywhere).
The Lido Marketplace and 24 hour deli. Where the sandwiches are now premade and sitting on the shelf.
On the back of the ship you'll find another pool (TIDES POOL) and also a few hot tubs.
DECK 11: Panorama
CUCINA DEL CAPITANO:
DECK 12:
Seaside Theater & Extras
Sports Square:
Sports Square:Hot Dog stand
Waterworks:
Here's some pictures of the decor/paintings in the hallways (at least on my floor).
I have to be honest, I really loved them and the colors. Sakari is a huge "bird lover" and is always drawing birds. She loved these and was always looking at them as we passed by.
I also loved the colors they used because Sakari and I have been doing some watercolor paintings recently and it kinda reminded me of our paintings.
Now you be the judge...these are some of our paintings we did just prior to the cruise. They are colorful just like the decor on the walls in our hallway.
I think we are going to have some ideas the next time we do a painting (by looking at some of these pictures from the Magic). :D
Like I said, this ship is just loaded with green everywhere.
Down the hall from us was this couple #lifegoals
Congrats to Frank & Connie. You are my heroes!
Ok, done with the ship tour. You'll see more of some of the places during the review.
